WASHINGTON, Sept. 19.-HOn. James
Smith, director and attorney of the st.
Paul & Duluth road, called upon acting
secretary of war, Gen. .McFoley, this
morning and this afternoon. On the
latter occasion he remained two hours
arguing the right of the. road to com
plete the bridge over the st. Louis river
between Duluth and Superior City, de-
spite the protests of interested parties.
The corporation is now paying So per
car for crossing the Northern Pacific
bridge, costing about $50 per day now
and about $500 per day as soon as wheat
commences to come i'll. The objections
to the road because it has commenced
the bridge obliquely to the channel are
to be overcome by dredging and build
ing boom at cost of S25, 600, provided
the war department consents to APP
prove the plan. 1t will probably be
necessary for Mr.. Smith to return home
and send the president of the road with
authority from the directors after a
vote to ratify such an agreement; but
even in tAat event there is not at pres
ent likelihood of permission being
gwen for the completion of the bridge.
MAJ. Adams quotes from the reports of
Capt. Quinn at Duluth filing the objec-
tions of the engineer, Officer, together
with protests of interested parties.
The solicitor general. and Judge advo-
cate are opposed strongly to granting
permission for the continuance of the
matter, and Mr.. Smith will have to
RETURN DISAPPOINTED.
The acting secretary is willing to ac-
commOdate, but the law as passetfis
strongly wOrded, and may render it inn
possible for him to approve. Besides,
Secretary Endicott, who is away, has
withheld his appeal during all these
months, and others acting for him
are chary of approval. Hence no
positive encouragement can be
given in the matter. Mr. Smith
made strong and persistent presenta-
ton OF his case, showing plainly that
the road had commenced the bridge iii
good faith, building it Obliquely to the
channel merely to accommodate the
bridge to future rather than present
conditions, to accommodate the bridge
to government docks and other public
worksnow i'll process, of construction,
which will change the channel. Good
faith is conceded by the department,
but the plain declarations of the law are
in the way, and cannot be met by ordi-
nary means. The department is obliged
to demand strict compliance.

The Mitchelstoyn Murders.

DUBLIN, Sept. 19.-At Mitehelstown
to-day the coroner resumed his inquest
over the bodies of those slain during
the recent conflict between the police
and people. Sergt. Kirwin, of the con-
Stabulary, depOsed that bullets were
fired from the barrack windows solely
to defend the policemen who were then
running to endeavor to get into the bar
racks to escape the stones which were
coming thick and fast upon them. When
! the police reached the barrack door
they could not get in, the door being
blocked. He then ordered the firing,
seeing that his own life and the lives of
the cOnstables were endangered. Since
he became a policeman his life was
never before in more danger. After
two rounds of buckshot had been fired
there was one round of ball cartridges
fred. He was sure that the shots
struck somebody.
Mr.. Timothy Harrington, secretary of
the Irish National league, in the course
OF the examination, denounced the wit
ness as murderer. The crown coun-
sci protested against the use of such
language, and Mr.. Harrington answered:

DUBUQUE. To-, Sept. 19.-The most
appalling accident i'll the history OF
Dubuque railroading occurred this
morning on the Milwaukee & st. Paul
road in the city limits. AS two passen-
ger trains, running in opposite direc-
tionS, We're rounding short curve at
Eagle Point, during dense fog, they
came together with a fearful crash and
were smashed beyond all semblance of
their former condition. The mail, bag
gage and smoking ears were telescoped
and smashed to pieces. One mail car
broke loose and rolled over twice, land
on the bank of the river. The meeting
was so sudden that the engineers and
firemen had no time to jump for their
lives and died at their posts of duty.
All the passengers escaped death, but
received few bruises. The dead are:
Elmer Winchester, engineer; Charles
FaleS, engineer; Z. Z. Cummings, fire
man, and Will Richmond, fireman.
Richmond was killed instantly and
Cummings died after reaching his
home. John Parnetta, a brakeman,
also lost his life. Both trains
WE'RE BEHIND TIME.

while there an engine went up the road
to 90 OF branch. Instead of waiting
for the regular train to pass it pulled
out and was making up lost time and
when rounding the curve in the fog met
the train coming up. The blame lies
with the conductor or the train dis
patcher at La Crosse. a miScOnStruc=
ton of orders is the probable cause.
Both locomotives are complete wrecks
and ground to pieces and only fit ma
terial for the junk shop. Thousands of
people visited the wreck and carried
away mementoes of the worst accident
ever seen in this vicinity.

that Cleveland and Hill stood apart

that Cleveland and Hill stood apart
from the others for some time, and
after the president had shaken hands
with the other governors, and they had
retired, Gov. Hill remained and the
president and he chatted and laughed
for long time. A prominent Repub-
lican of thiS.State, who has held high
offices in the gift of the people, asked
one of Gov. Hills staff that night while
they were standing in the hotel corridor
near the cashiers desk:
How about Hill for PRESIDENT"
"Oh, that was all fixed in New York three
days ago, was the answer; last TUESDAY
night. Hill will not be a candidate. He and
his friends will be for Cleveland for renOmi-
nation"
The prominent Republican was sur
prised and said: "You don't mean it?"
80, yes, do. Hill and his friends
are for Cleveland for second term.
AS l said moment ago, that was all
fixed last Tuesday night"
The prominent Republican under
stood that he was not to talk about what
he had been told, but another of Gov.
the very same thing, and he did not un-
derstand that 1t was a confidential con-
VerSatiOn.
1t was also stated that Gov. Hill, as
an ambitious man, succumbed to his
fate not without disappointment. The
presidential bee has been buZZing in his
bonnet so loudly that it was a sore de-
nial to him to relinquish his grip on one
of the rounds of the presidential con-
vention ladder. Gov. Hill was reminded
that he was still a young man, and that
he was growing steadily in political
popularity, and that by being reelected
governor of New York he would be a
stronger card for the presidential nOmi-
nation in 1892 than in 1888, and he was
assured that the friends of Hill and the
friends of Cleveland would stand by
him to a man for president in 1892.
After this it was all understood that
Cleveland was to be renominateI, and
it was openly announced by Hill that
he would be for Cleveland for second
term. ~
